A new Beta software for the Edge 830 has been released. Full change log, instructions, and software for installing the beta can be found in the link below.

Edge 830

  • For any issues that you encounter please fill out the form included in the download and attach it to an email to [email protected]. Please note that you may not get a response to the email unless we need more information on the issue you report.
  • Although this software is believed to be reliable, it has not yet been released for production and should be used at your own risk.

Changes made from version 5.00 to 5.02:

  • Fixed an issue that could cause instability when using Connect IQ apps and data fields.
  • Fixed an issue where data could be missing from segment FIT files.

Installation Instructions

  1. Connect your Edge 830 device to your computer using the micro-USB cable.
  2. Download and unzip Edge830_502Beta.zip and place the GUPDATE.gcd file in the \Garmin folder of your device's internal storage drive.
  3. Disconnect your device from the computer, approve the update on the Edge, and wait for the update to finish.
  4. If you would like to revert to the last public release software, follow the above steps but place the GUPDATE-500.GCD file in the \Garmin folder. Rename the file to GUPDATE.GCD before disconnecting your device.
    NOTE: If you revert to an older version of software, all of your settings will be reset to defaults.

    i don't need to try this beta, but i want to ask who is responsible for this new Smart Trainer found Popup since the last releases?

    every time this Popup comes, it found my smart Trainer and ask me to add several times, but i won't add the Smart Trainer to my Edge, because my Smart Trainer is only connected to the Trainingssoftware (Zwift, Tacx, Trainerroad, etc.), i do only recording with Edge twice to get Traininsload etc. in Garmin Eco-System.

    the best solution would be:

    add the Smart Trainer, but give us a possibility to disable it like you can do with other ANT+ sensors

    What do you think?

     who can help, the Beta Team, you?

     - We are working on a 'Don't Show Me Again' that will silence future prompts about the Smart Trainer being found. This will be included in the next public beta. 

    In the mean time, you can connect the trainer to your Edge first and then add it to the Training Software. The Trainer will follow the last thing that it is told. So in this scenario it would follow your Training Software as long as you are not also trying to follow a workout/course on the Edge (this scenario would not be recommended). Following the workout/course on the Edge and using a Training Software will cause a conflict.

    "We are working hard on 'LiveTrack AutoStart failed' repeated notifications".

    Yeah, right.

    When can we expect iOS 13 compatibility fix? Must've tried pairing 30-40 times now. Only broken since 5.00

    Hope a fix on Bluetooth (connection and the same name on phone settings) and Battery (from full 100% charged to 97% when powered on) issues and some minor bugs be included in the update.

    Please fix Bluetooth connection and auto start with live track.
